Foreword 


In  these  days  of  returning  to  the  direct  teaching  of  Jesus  Christ, 
there  is  an  increasing  demand  for  his  sayings  to  stand  forth  dis- 
tinctly from  his  history  as  presented  in  the  Four  Gospels.  The 
Red  Letter  Testament  was  one  of  the  first  responses  to  this  demand. 
Other  works  like  The  Great  Discourse  have  sought  to  supply  this 
need. 

This  volume  aims  to  give  all  the  sayings  of  Jesus  Christ  in  a 
form  that  can  be  a  daily  study,  a  spiritual  diet  for  the  soul-hunger 
of  the  thousands  who  long  to  be  like  Jesus  Christ  in  character,  works 
and  attainment. 

We  become  like  that  which  we  study,  and  our  minds  "let  this 
mind  be  in  us  which  was  also  in  Christ  Jesus"  by  earnest  and 
faithful  study  of,  and  meditation  upon,  the  words  which  sprung  from 
the  mind  of  the  Master. 

Arranged  to  be  a  daily  study  for  five  years  under  more  than 
two  hundred  and  fifty  subjects,  this  compilation  will  be  a  means  of 
most  devoted  application,  and  those  who  will  faithfully  eat  and 
drink  these  sayings,  will  find  their  progress  in  the  Christ  Way 
greatly  enhanced,  and  their  daily  living  full  of  spiritual  sweetness, 
strength  and-  satisfaction. 

Other  uses  will  be  found  for  the  book  such  as  reciting,  as  ''Grace 
before  meals,"  the  red-letter  saying  of  the  week  at  the  top  of  the 
page  at  breakfast,  and  the  red-letter  saying  at  the  foot  at  the  even- 
ing meal.  Those  who  desire  material  for  discourses,  writings  and 
meditations  will  find  the  subject  arrangement  especially  helpful. 
For  readings  from  the  pulpit,  also  for  responsive  readings  for 
minister  and  congregation,  this  little  volume  may  prove  a  happy  aid. 

But  more  than  all  else,  this  is  the  deeply  heartfelt,  humble 
desire  of  the  compiler,  that  this  daily  companion  shall  contribute 
to  the  enthusiastic  and  whole-hearted  return  of .  every  Christian  to 
the  primitive  doctrines  and  practice  of  our  Leader,  Jesus  Christ,  the 
one  sure  Guide  into  the  Life  of  endless  Happiness  and  Peace.

Our  Spiritual  Diet 


HE  soul  of  man  must  be  fed  as  well  as  his  body,  and  the 
food  of  the  soul  consists  of  the  thoughts  and  feelings 
that  belong  to  the  mind  and  heart  of  God.  These  are 
embodied  in  the  words  of  spiritual  masters,  whose  sayings 
have  ever  been  the  spiritual  diet  of  those  who  have  de- 
sired to  advance  spiritually.  But  the  wisest  Master  of 
all  left  us  a  complete  dietary  of  Words  to  eat  and  drink,  that  are 
all-sufficient  for  us  to  make  the  same  attainment  that  he  did. 

Though  Jesus  Christ  spoke  thousands  of  words  that  are  not 
recorded,  yet  by  inspirational  memory  (John  14:26)  his  disciples 
remembered  just  those  words  that  supply  the  complete  means  for 
nourishing  the  true  in  us  and  purging  us  of  the  false — just  enough 
words  and  no  more.  Other  masters  have  given  much  teaching,  and 
their  followers  have  culled  from  their  words  what  they  pleased, 
often  refusing  the  bitter  words,  not  knowing  their  place  in  the 
economy  of  their  spiritual  development.  But  this  Master  of  masters 
provided  against  such  unwise  and  childish  discrimination  by  the 
power  of  the  Holy  Spirit,  so  that  our  blessed  heritage  from  him 
consists  of  a  choice  of  his  sayings,  commandments,  doctrines  and 
parables,  as  shall  form  the  perfect  dietary  to  regenerate  our  whole 
nature  and  prepare  us  a  body  fit  for  the  Christ  demonstration  of 
immortal  life  here  upon  the  earth. 

For  the  beautiful  utterances  that  fill  us  with  love  and  peace, 
comfort  and  strength — faith,  purity,  wisdom,  patience,  joy,  illumina- 
tion, all  the  virtues  of  heaven  and  beauties  of  the  Christ  character, 
we  need  no  special  urge  in  accepting,  studying,  assimilating  and 
incorporating  to  the  very  best  of  our  ability. 

But  there  are  the  strong  denunciations,  the  flaming  "woes,"  the 
rebukes,  the  plain  exposures  of  the  deceitful  pretender — what  about 
these?  These  are  most  essential  to  cleanse  us  of  self-righteousness,, 
to  rouse  us  from  the  smugness  of  the  world-life,  to  warn  us  before 
the  carnal  deceptions,  subtleties  and  other  errors  that  have  stumbled 
the  feet  of  so  many  aspirants  who  have  fallen  short  of  the  great 
attainment.     Let  us  swallow  ihem  with  the  same  grace  with  which 


we  have  received  the  gracious  words.     They  may  be  bitter  to  our 
taste  but  they  will  prove  tonics  to  our  enervated  spiritual  energies. 

"Drink  ye  all  of  it."  Eat  and  drink  every  word  and  those  that 
seem  most  unwelcome,  meditate  long  upon.  Also  sayings  that  seem 
only  words, — perhaps  good  words  that  have  become  a  dry  food 
because  hackneyed,  difficult  to  receive  as  renewing  and  helpfui 
although  they  are  good,  because  associated  with  human  views  and 
interpretations  that  are  not  true. 

Under  every  saying  of  Jesus  Christ  lie  deep,  mystic  meanings 
that  the  faithful  shall  receive.  All  the  secrets  of  the  universe  are 
enfolded  in  those  words.  When  the  Master  declares  that  he  has 
given  us  all  the  words  that  God  gave  him,  and  that  he  has  withheld 
nothing,  he  virtually  declares  everything  that  is  necessary  for  us  to 
know  is  in  these  sayings  which  are  his  legacy,  his  "testament,"  to  us. 

This  is  the  real  Passover  that  we  are  to  eat,  the  true  Com- 
munion. As  the  Israelites  ate  the  lamb,  all  of  it,  and,  by  that  act 
under  the  guidance  of  those  who  knew  what  this  obedience  meant, 
were  defended  from  the  scourge  of  death  that  passed  over  them 
without  harm  yet  took  its  deadly  toll  from  every  Egyptian  family, 
so  we  who  will  eat  this  Lamb  of  God  will  be  saved  from  death  and 
all  that  leads  to  it — sinning,  sicknesses,  accidents,  famines  and  the 
ravages  of  the  elements,  of  wars,  wild  beasts  and  other  world- 
dangers. 

We  eat  the  flesh  of  Jesus  Christ  by  eating  his  Words  which 
are  one  with  the  Substance  (Spirit)  of  his  flesh.  We  drink  his 
blood  ("the  blood  is  the  life")  by  drinking  his  Words  which  "are 
Life  to  all  that  find  them  and  health  to  all  their  flesh." 

When  mystically  referring  to  his  flesh  and  blood  as  the  "Bread 
from  heaven"  which  they  were  to  eat,  Jesus  saw  how  his  hearers  were 
misunderstanding  him,  and  he  hastened  to  explain  "It  is  the  Spirit 
that  gives  life  ("quickeneth")  the  flesh  profiteth  nothing;  the  Words 
that  I  speak  unto  you  they  are  Spirit  and  they  are  Life,"  or  my 
Words  are  my  flesh  and  my  blood,  eat  and  drink  them.  Make  my 
Words,  flesh  of  your  flesh  and  blood  of  your  blood. 

What  we  eat  we  identify  ourselves  with,  a  power  and  substance 
tp  upbuild  or  to  tear  down  according  to  the  way  we  appropriate 
what  we  receive. 

Man's  body  is  the  out  picturing  of  his  thoughts.  Think  the 
thoughts  of  Jesus  Christ  and  you  will  show  forth  the  body  of  Christ 

iv 


as  it  naw  is,  glorified  and  immortal.  The  body  of  regeneration  is 
built  by  the  thoughts  and  feelings  of  our  Divine  Self  with  which  we 
make  connection  through  the  mind  and  heart  of  Jesus,  expressed 
by  his  words.  As  the  body  of  generation  was  built  by  bread  from 
earth  so  the  new  body  of  regeneration  is  built  by  Bread  from 
Heaven. 

Many  students  of  Truth  are  candidates  for  the  new  birth  ;  some 
know  they  have  been  reborn;  all  feel  they  are  but  babes  in  Truth. 
When  a  babe  is  given  food  it  does  not  know  why,  or  what  will  be 
the  result,  or  how  the  result  is  achieved.  So  it  is  with  our  young 
consciousness  of  Truth.  As  aspirants  to  go  all  the  Way  with  Christ, 
to  live  the  true  life,  exercise  divine  powers,  have  the  new  senses  and 
enter  into  all  the  joys  of  heaven  while  yet  on  the  earth,  we  eat  the 
Words  of  Jesus  Christ.  Some  of  them  are  constructive  and  they 
strengthen  and  comfort  us.  But  there  are  others  that  are  drastic 
and  purgative,  and  we  eat  these  words  with  wonderment,  not  know- 
ing they  are  among  the  most  essential  in  rousing  our  human  nature 
from  its  deadness  and  self-complacency ;  also  to  cleanse  our  old 
nature  from  its  false  accretions  of  pride,  selfishness  and  greed. 

Let  us  learn  to  apply  all  Jesus'  Words  to  ourselves,  to  one  and 
all  of  these  three:  (1)  the  unregenerate  or  false  part,  (2)  to  the 
one  in  us  that  aspires  to  spirituality,  (3)  or  to  the  One  who  is,  and 
always  has  been,  perfect,  pure  and  holy.

For  as  the  Father  hath  Hfe  in  himself,  so  hath  he  given  to 
the  Son  to  have  life  in  himself. 


Because  I  live,  ye  shall  live  also. 


As  thou  hast  given  him  power  over  all  flesh,  that  he  should 
give  eternal  life  to  as  many  as  thou  hast  given  him. 


Take  heed,  and  beware  of  covetousness :  for  a  man's  Hfe 
consisteth  not  in  the  abundance  of  the  things  which  he  pos- 
sesseth. 


He  that  loveth  his  Hfe  shall  lose  it;  and  he  that  hateth  his 
life  in  this  world  shall  keep  it  unto  life  eternal. 


I  am  come  that  they  might  have  life  and  that  they  might 
have  it  more  abundantly. 


I  give  unto  them  eternal  life ;  and  they  shall  never  perish. 


If  ye  continue  in  my  word,  then  are  ye  my  disciples  indeed;  and 
ye  shall  know  the  truth  and  the  truth  shall  make  you  free.

Have  ye  not  read  what  David  did,  when  he  was  an  hungred, 
and  they  that  were  with  him ; 


How  he  entered  into  the  house  of  God,  and  did  eat  the 
shewbread,  which  was  not  lawful  for  him  to  eat,  neither 
for  them  which  were  with  him,  but  only  for  the  priests? 


Or  have  ye  not  read  in  the  law,  how  that  on  the  sabbath 
days  the  priests  in  the  temple  profane  the  sabbath,  and 
are  blameless? 


But  I  say  unto  you,  That  in  this  place  is  one  greater  than 
the  temple. 


For  the  Son  of  man  is  Lord  even  of  the  sabbath  day.  Thou 
hypocrite,  doth  not  each  one  of  you  on  the  sabbath  loose 
his  ox  or  his  ass  from  the  stall,  and  lead  him  away  to  water- 
ing? 


What  man  shall  there  be  among  you,  that  shall  have  one 
sheep,  and  if  it  fall  into  a  pit  on  the  sabbath  day,  will  he 
not  lay  hold  on  it,  and  lift  it  out  ? 


How  much  then  is  a  man  better  than  a  sheep?    Wherefore 
it  is  lawful  to  do  well  on  the  Sabbath  days.

Did  you  never  read  in  the  scriptures,  The  stone  which  the 
builders  rejected,  the  same  is  become  the  head  of  the  corner: 
this  is  the  Lord's  doing,  and  it  is  marvelous  in  our  eyes? 


And  whosoever  shall  fall  on  this  stone  shall  be  broken ;  but 
on  whomsoever  it  shall  fall,  it  will  grind  him  to  powder. 


Wilt  thou  lay  down  thy  life  for  my  sake?  Verily,  verily,  I 
say  unto  thee,  The  cock  shall  not  crow,  till  thou  hast  denied 
me  thrice. 


What  is  this  then  that  is  written,  The  stone  which  the  build- 
ers rejected,  the  same  is  become  the  head  of  the  corner? 


Whosoever  shall  fall  upon  that  stone  shall  be  broken ;  but 
on  whomsoever  it  shall  fall,  it  will  grind  him  to  powder. 


The  Son  of  man  must  suffer  many  things,  and  be  rejected

By  hearing  ye  shall  hear,  and  shall  not  understand ;  and

For  this  people's  heart  is  waxed  gross  and  their  ears  are  dull  of

see  with  their  eyes,  and  hear  with  their  ears,  and  should  understand

not  seen  them ;  and  to  hear  those  things  which  ye  hear,  and

Matt.

Beware  of  false  prophets,  which  come  to  you  in  sheep's 
clothing,  but  inwardly  are  ravening  wolves.  Every  tree  that 
bringeth  not  forth  good  fruit  is  hewn  down,  and  cast  into

JULY 


Can  the  blind  lead  the  blind?  shall  they  not  both  fall  into 
the  ditch  ? 

Let  them  alone :  they  be  blind  leaders  of  the  blind.    And  if 
the  blind  lead  the  blind,  both  shall  fall  into  the  ditch. 


Unto  you  it  is  given  to  know  the  mysteries  of  the  kingdom 
of  God :  but  to  others  in  parables ;  that  seeing  they  might  not 
see,  and  hearing  they  might  not  understand. 


That  seeing  they  may  see,  and  not  perceive ;  and  hearing  they 
may  hear,  and  not  understand ;  lest  at  any  time  they  should 
be  converted,  and  their  sins  should  be  forgiven  them. 


Why  reason  ye,  because  ye  have  no  bread?  perceive  ye  not 
yet,  neither  understand?  have  ye  your  heart  yet  hardened? 
Having  eyes  see  ye  not,  and  having  ears  hear  ye  not,  and 
do  ye  not  remember? 


What  went  ye  out  into  the  wilderness  for  to  see?  A  reed  shaken 
with  the  wind?  Bui  what  went  ye  out  for  to  see?  A  prophet? 
Yea,  I  say  unto  you,  and  much  more  than  a  prophet.  This  is  he, 
of  whom  it  is  written,  Behold,  I  send  my  messenger  before  thy 
face,  which  shall  prepare  thy  way  before  thee. 


No  man,  when  he  hath  lighted  a  candle,  covereth  it  with  a 
vessel,  or  putteth  it  under  a  bed ;  but  setteth  it  on  a  candle- 
stick, that  they  which  enter  in  may  see  the  light. 


If  thy  whole  body  therefore  be  full  of  light,  having  no  part 
dark,  the  whole  shall  be  full  of  light,  as  when  the  bright 
shining  of  a  candle  doth  give  thee  light. 


And  Melchizedek,  king  of  Salem,  brought  forth  bread  and  wine: 
and  he  was  a  priest  of  the  most  high  God.  Thou  art  a  priest 
forever  after  the  order  of  Melchizedek.

What  manner  of  communications  are  these  that  ye  have  one 
to  another,  as  ye  walk,  and  are  sad  ? 


But  let  your  communication  be,  Yea,  yea;  Nay,  nay;  for 
whatsoever  is  more  than  these  cometh  of  evil. 


Moreover,  when  ye  fast,  be  not  as  the  hypocrites,  of  a  sad 
countenance :  for  they  disfigure  their  faces,  that  they  may 
appear  unto  men  to  fast.  Verily  I  say  unto  you,  They  have 
their  reward. 


Can  the  children  of  the  bridechamber  mourn,  as  long  as  the 
bridegroom  is  with  them  ?  but  the  days  will  come,  when  the 
bridegroom  shall  be  taken  from  them,  and  then  shall  they 
fast. 


Rejoice  ye  in  that  day  and  leap  for  joy:  for,  behold,  your 
reward  is  great  in  heaven:  for  in  the  like  manner  did  their 
fathers  unto  the  prophets. 


Let  not  your  heart  be  troubled     ....     for  out  of  the

The  Bread  of  God  is  he  which  cometh  down  from  heaven.  And 
the  bread  that  I  will  give  is  my  flesh,  which  I  will  give  for  the

whosoever  sweareth  by  the  gift  that  is  upon  it,  he  is  guilty. 


Ye  fools  and  blind:  for  whether  is  greater,  the  gift,  or  the 
altar  that  sanctifieth  the  gift? 

Whoso  therefore  shall  swear  by  the  altar,  sweareth  by  it,  and 
by  all  things  thereon. 


And  w4ioso  shall  swear  by  the  temple,  sweareth  by  it,  and

And  he  that  shall  swear  by  heaven,  sweareth  by  the  throne

Whoso  eateth  my  flesh,  and  drinketh  my  blood,  hath  eternal  life.

And  should  sleep,  and  rise  night  and  day,  and  the   seed 
should  spring  and  grow  up,  he  knoweth  not  how. 

Mark

For  the  earth  bringeth  forth  fruit  of  herself ;  first  the  blade 
then  the  ear,  after  that  the  full  corn  in  the  ear. 

Mark

But  when  the  fruit  is  brought  forth,  immediately  he  putteth 
in  the  sickle,  because  the  harvest  is  come.

Whereunto  shall  we  liken  the  kingdom  of  God  ?  or  with  what 
comparison  shall  we  compare  it  ?

It  is  like  a  grain  of  mustard  seed,  which  when  it  is  sown  in

But  when  it  is  sown,  it  groweth  up,  and  becometh  greater

How  many  loaves  have  ye?    O  ye  of  little  faith,  why  reason  ye

Then  shall  the  kingdom  of  heaven  be  likened  unto  ten  vir-

bridegroom. 


And  five  of  them  were  wise,  and  five  were  foolish. 

They  that  were  foolish  took  their  lamps,  and  took  no  oil 

with  them. 

And  the  wise  took  oil  in  their  vessels  with  their  lamps. 


While  the  bridegroom  tarried,  they  all  slumbered  and  slept. 
And  at  midnight  there  was  a  cry  made.  Behold,  the  bride- 
groom cometh ;  go  ye  out  to  meet  him. 
Then  all  those  virgins  arose,  and  trimmed  their  lamps. 


And  the  foolish  said  unto  the  wise,  Give  us  of  your  oil;  for  our 
lamps  are  gone  out.  But  the  wise  answered,  saying.  Not  so;  lest 
there  be  not  enough  for  us  and  you:  but  go  ye  rather  to  them  that 
sell,  and  buy  for  yourselves. 


And  while  they  went  to  buy,  the  bridegroom  came;  and 
they  that  were  ready  went  in  with  him  to  the  marriage :  and 
the  door  was  shut. 


Afterward  came  also  the  other  virgins,  saying.  Lord,  Lord, 
open  to  us. 

But  he  answered  and  said,  Verily  I  say  unto  you,  I  know 
you  not.

The  servant  therefore  fell  down,  and  worshipped  him, 
saying,  Lord,  have  patience  with  me,  and  I  will  pay  thee  all. 
Then  the  lord  of  that  servant  was  moved  with  compassion, 
and  loosed  him,  and  forgave  him  the  debt. 


But  the  same  servant  went  out,  and  found  one  of  his  fellow- 
servants  which  owed  him  an  hundred  penc'e ;  and  he  laid 
hands  on  him,  and  took  him  by  the  throat,  saying.  Pay  me 
that  thou  owest. 


And  his  fellowservant  fell  down  at  his  feet,  and  besought 
him,  saying.  Have  patience  with  me,  and  I  will  pay  thee  all. 
And  he  would  not ;  but  went  and  cast  him  into  prison,  till  he 
should  pay  the  debt. 


So  when  his  fellowservants  saw  what  was  done,  they  were 
very  sorry,  and  came  and  told  unto  their  lord  all  that  was 
done.

Then  his  lord,  after  that  he  had  called  him,  said  unto  him,  O  thou 
wicked  servant,  I  forgave  thee  all  that  debt,  because  thou  desiredst 
me :  Shouldest  not  thou  also  have  had  compassion  on  thy  fellow- 
servant;  even  as  I  had  pity  on  thee? 


And  his  lord  was  wroth,  and  delivered  him  to  the  tormentors, 
till  he  should  pay  all  that  was  due  unto  him.

Behold,  a  sower  went  forth  to  sow;  Hear  ye  therefore  the 
parable  of  the  sower.  And  when  he  sowed,  some  seeds 
fell  by  the  way  side,  and  the  fowls  came  and  devoured  them 
up. 


When  any  one  heareth  the  word  of  the  kingdom,  and  un- 
derstandeth  it  not,  then  cometh  the  wicked  one,  and  catcheth 
away  that  which  was  sown  in  his  heart.  This  is  he  which 
received  seed  by  the  way  side. 


Some  fell  upon  stony  places,  where  they  had  not  much  earth  ; 
and  forthwith  they  sprung  up,  because  they  had  no  deep- 
ness of  earth :  And  when  the  sun  was  up  they  were  scorched ; 
and  because  they  had  no  root,  they  withered  away. 


But  he  that  received  the  seed  into  stony  places,  the  same  is  he  that 
heareth  the  word,  and  anon  with  joy  receiveth  it. 
Yet  hath  he  not  root  in  himself,  but  dureth  for  a  while:  for  when 
tribulation  or  persecution  ariseth  because  of  the  word,  by  and  by  he 
is  offended. 


And  some  fell  among  thorns ;  and  the  thorns  sprung  up  and  choked 
them.  He  also  that  received  seed  among  the  thorns  is  he  that  heareth 
the  word;  and  the  care  of  this  world,  and  the  deceitfulness  of  riches, 
choke  the  word,  and  he  becometh  unfruitful. 


But  other  fell  into  good  ground,  and  brought  forth  fruit, 
some  an  hundredfold,  some  sixtyfold,  some  thirtyfold. 


But  he  that  received  seed  into  the  good  ground  is  he  that 
heareth  the  word,  and  understandeth  it;  which  also  beareth 
fruit,  and  bringeth  forth,  some  an  hundredfold,  some  sixty, 
some  thirty.

thee.

Ye  know  that  after  two  days  is  the  feast  of  the  passover,     j^^^.^. 
and  the  Son  of  man  is  betrayed  to  be  crucified.  26 :2 


Verily  I  say  unto  you,  that  one  of  you  shall  betray  me.  Verily 
I  say  unto  you,  one  of  you  which  eateth  with  me  shall 
betray  me. 


Verily,  verily.  I  say  unto  you,  that  one  of  you  shall  betray 

me. 

But,  behold,  the  hand  of  him  that  betrayeth  me  is  with  me  on 

the  table.    That  thou  doest,  do  quickly. 


It  is  one  of  the  twelve  that  dippeth  with  me  in  the  dish. 
He  that  dippeth  his  hand  with  me  in  the  dish,  the  same  shall 
betray  me. 
He  it  is,  to  whom  I  shall  give  a  sop,  when  I  have  dipped  it. 


The  Son  of  man  indeed  goeth,  as  it  is  written  of  him:  but 
woe  to  that  man  by  whom  the  Son  of  man  is  betrayed !  good 
were  it  for  that  man  if  he  had  never  been  born. 


And  truly  the  Son  of  man  goeth,  as  it  was  determined :  but 
woe  unto  that  man  by  whom  he  is  betrayed ! 


And  ye  shall  be  betrayed  both  by  parents,  and  brethren,  and 
kinsfolks,  and  friends ;  and  some  of  you  shall  they  cause  to 
be  put  to  death. 


I  have  refrained  my  feet  from  every  evil  way,  that  I  might  keep

And  at  the  season  he  sent  to  the  husbandmen  a  servant,

A  certain  man  had  two  sons:  And  the  younger  of  them  said 
to  his  father,  Father,  give  me  the  portion  of  goods  that  fall- 
eth  to  me.    And  he  divided  unto  them  his  Hving.

And  not  many  days  after,  the  younger  son  gathered  all  together, 
and  took  his  journey  into  a  far  country,  and  there  wasted  his  sub- 
stance with  riotous  living.    And  when  he  had  spent  all,  there  arose 
a  mighty  famine  in  that  land;  and  he  began  to  be  in  want.

And  he  v^ent  and  joined  himself  to  a  citizen  of  that  country ; 
and  he  sent  him  into  his  fields  to  feed  swine.    And  he  would

eat :  and  no  man  gave  unto  him.

Now  his  elder  son  was  in  the  field :  and  as  he  came  and  drew

make  merry  with  my  friends; 


But  as  soon  as  this  thy  son  was  come,  which  hath  devoured

is  found.

And  at  the  season,  he  sent  a  servant  to  the  husbandmen,  that 
they  should  give  him  of  the  fruit  of  the  vineyard;  but  the 
husbandmen  beat  him,  and,  sent  him  away  empty. 


And  again  he  sent  another  servant :  and  they  beat  him  also, 
and  entreated  him  shamefully,  and  sent  him  away  empty.

And  again  he  sent  a  third :  and  they  wounded  him  also,  and

Then  said  the  lord  of  the  vineyard.  What  shall  I  do  ?  I  will 
send  my  beloved  son:  it  may  be  they  will  reverence  him, 
when  they  see  him. 


But  when  the  husbandmen  saw  him,  they  reasoned  among 
themselves,  saying,  This  is  the  heir:  come,  let  us  kill  him, 
that  the  inheritance  may  be  ours. 


So  they  cast  him  out  of  the  vineyard,  and  killed  him.    What 
therefore  shall  the  lord  of  the  vineyard  do  unto  them  ? 
He  shall  come  and  destroy  these  husbandmen,  and  shall  give 
the  vineyard  to  others. 


O  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord;  for  he  is  good     ....     who

Therefore  also  said  the  wisdom  of  God,  I  will  send  them
